Something needs to be done about it.
And "our group" are equally sick of "your group" and your constant complaining. So I guess it makes it about even.
- Ok, you must admit that was the most creative cussing this site have ever seen -
The longer and more you contribute to the site (moderated by admins if they find this abused) will give you more voting power.
The large problem with the site here and it's voting system is simply the fact that we don't have enough people here to create a good average. So by giving more credible people more votes, it might assist in that, because they're less likely to fuck themselves over by being stupid.
Phredeeke has more points than Adam and was around longer. Heck, he has more points and experience than everyone who voted 5 stars on Adam's game. If his vote counted for more weight, then his single 0 star vote would bump it to 3.6 or something.
Or how about Hamish? Anyone remember him? Texmo, Hiredgun, Brad, Podunkian. They've been in the community before TDC existed, have strong opinions, and don't give a damn what people think about their opinions
Also, there's other veterans with many contributions who have also downvoted like Phizzy and umm.. that other guy who's nick I can't remember. Do you really want Phizzy to have more power than you?
Disclaimer: Any sarcasm in my posts will not be mentioned as that would ruin the purpose. It is assumed that the reader is intelligent enough to tell the difference between what is sarcasm and what is not.
Again, it goes back to this crap about "veterans" of the site. What the hell does being here the longest have to do with anything? Does it make the member more talented? Not at all, apparently. Does it make them more superior? No.

Jeff jumped to conlusions just like you're doing. I also saw what you wrote about me after I was 'banned'.
Remember when everyone kept shouting at you for generally being a pain in the arse? I forgave you, yet at the first oppurtunity you start calling ME names when you think I can't see it.
First of all, Muz that was a horrible comparison. Not trying to be mean. I'm just saying it holds no relevance in being a legitimate reason for anyone to agree with you.
How do you think having more points affects whether or not he rated something right or wrong is beyond me. Like I said, he agreed that the graphics were good. So by him admitting that, he's saying gameplay is worth all 5 stars and graphics are not even worth 1. The fact that people want to justify that by saying well it's his right is hilarious. I may have a different opinion if he didn't like the graphics, but he said HE DID. That would be like me saying well the gameplay is perfect, but the graphics suck 0 out 5. THEN to have people back up my decision? That in itself is ridiculous!
Just admit it, the game obviously does not deserve a zero whether or not you like it. Hell, I did not like the game that much myself, but you do not see me giving it a big fat zero. That's just insulting and down right disrespectful towards the other person's work. EVERYONE, even the people defending him admitted that it was harsh. So I do not see why anyone is still arguing. If he does not want to change his rating. Then fine do not change it and try to make a statement. Just know that I'm not going to take anything else you say serious and chances are no one else will either.
IF YOU DO NOT LIKE A GAME. OKAY, AT LEAST HAVE THE BALLS TO GIVE A GOOD ENOUGH EXPLANATION INSTEAD OF SOME HALF ASS EXCUSE THAT'S HYPOCRITICAL TO EVERYTHING ELSE YOU SAID.
"+ Neat graphics effect
- Everything else " - Quoted for Truth
If anyone rates something low. At least have the respect to be specific in saying what and why so that the creator can learn from it. Saying everything except one thing sucks is not a good description either. I would hope that everyone who reads this takes something away from it and tries to be a more positive person.

There are games that suck, and there are games that are good! There is nothing more to it!(?) (or it should be nothing more to it!) But there are no reasons at all, NO reasons at all, to get all up personal about a "stupid" rating! My God people, what are you trying to achieve by accusing each other with every said and not said ugly word?(!)
It is a honest case, not to like a game, but that people get all upset about it, gives no meaning for whatever reason. It does NOT serve any goal.
It is like a kindergarden, where the children accuse each other for not drawing good... my drawing is much more beutyfull than yours - you can't even draw a stick man. NO *crying* you are not good at drawing!!!! No you are!!! No you are!!! ... get the point
Chill down people, and lets click our beutyfull, our ugly, our good, and our bad games in "sweet harmony", and try to give constructive feedback, not destructive feedback!
